Thank you. It seems an oversight not to have clarity on the differences. I do live between two countries so I know the language differences that I speak, but I don't' know what Canvas thinks they are.

Does anyone have a link to the different settings that the 4 different English Languages impact? There is the UK, USA, Australian, and Canadian. I would like to know the difference between these. As everything (headings etc) are written by users, I'm guessing that it doesn't have many spelling impacts - and even then, some of these would be the same (I think) ie. Aust. and UK. I'm thinking of trying to change to make our institution a Monday to Sunday week rather than Sunday to Saturday, and the only way I can find is to change the language. I'm a little reluctant as I can't find anything that shows me the impact of the change. I have viewed this - https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Observer-Guide/How-do-I-change-the-language-preference-in-my-user-account-as-an/ta-p/552 and this - https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Basics-Guide/What-languages-does-Canvas-support/ta-p/19 but neither of them give me any information about the implications of a change.

I'll repeat what I've said multiple times and I can see others have said Assurance that the teachers can easily tell which quizzes need grading, that partial credit is available, and that ungraded quizzes are displayed on the teacher's to-do list when using new quizzes. This is a DEAL BREAKER for us and new quizzes and maybe even Canvas in general. We do not have due dates for our assignments and we need a way for faculty to quickly and easily identify what needs to be graded. Going into every quiz every day to see if there is a submission is NOT workable.

Hi there, is there any way to bulk delete spambots? They don't have SIS IDs which are required for the SIS upload CSV file. - see screenshot (this is not a real person so I felt OK sharing the email address) We have over 1000 of these in our account and I'd really like to clean it up! Thank you Megan

Thank you everyone. The trick was finding the users list in the provisioning reports. Once I had that it was easy!

megankoontz · ‎05-03-2021

We are moving to a different SIS and in order to do so, I need to update all our current users with different usernames and potentially emails. In the past we allowed students to pick their own usernames and their email preferences, but the new system requires the username format to be firstname.lastname, and the email to only be the school-issued email. I know that I can do this for individual students on a one-on-one basis just by working with their user name but would rather use the Canvas Data Portal if possible. I am a newbie though, and not sure where to find that information - can someone point me in the direction of the right report to be looking at potentially downloading, updating, and then uploading. Thank you.

The critical barriers for us are that New Quiz submissions are not showing in faculty tasks, and that resubmits do not show in the grade book. In fact, I just went back to the old Quiz because of this and I do not even talk about New Quiz with my faculty due to this.

megankoontz · ‎01-26-2021

this is a terrible bug and it means we struggle to use the feature. I am trying to change back and am now having trouble with that...

megankoontz · ‎10-02-2019

And be able to export back to MS Word....

megankoontz · ‎10-02-2019

This is vital in my ability as a teacher to use the feature. I'm going to have to go back to the old quiz where I get a notification of student submissions.

megankoontz · ‎12-13-2018

The only workaround I have is to have the classes I want open for enrollment as manually added, the others are added automatically from the SIS. Not ideal. Megan

in the new gradebook it would be great if there were separate policies for each assignment or even for each assignment group. We have different policies for our participation than for typical assignments for example. Having one policy for the whole course means this feature is not usable for us.

megankoontz · ‎12-14-2017

We also do all our grades manually, but incompletes do require a set of eyes, so we would probably keep this manual even if we were going to an automatic system

megankoontz · ‎12-04-2017

Great thanks, for some reason I thought I was heading to another page.... Duh.

megankoontz · ‎12-04-2017

Hi Emily, Can you link to the "other updates" section please. Megan

megankoontz · ‎05-08-2017

We have had some faculty reporting concerns that some buttons don't work with some mobile devices. If this a valid concern? Does anyone know how many mobile devices may not be able to use buttons? All my mobile devices seem to use them with no concerns. Thanks Megan

megankoontz · ‎01-24-2017

Is there some work around the this in the mean time? We need this report, but don't want to wait the time it takes to develop it. Even if the work around was clunky it would be great to have.
